Just wanted to know when do you guys code or do programming? I mean seven days a week or selective days and the time ... ! Which time do you think that you enjoy coding ?

I code all seven days. 21:00 to 23:00 hrs on working days and 04:00 to 10:00 hrs on holidays like saturdays and sundays .

I enjoy coding on holidays !

:lol: :lol: I like your question :yes: :yes:

I code around 15 hours daily. I have nothing to do (no school, no nothing).

[EDIT] Sorry guys for not being around these forums lately (busy programming ) [/EDIT]

i have no regular coding times. i'd say either over the day 1 - 9pm when i go out, which is usually on weekends and 8 - soewhere in the morning ours ( 2 -4 usually ) when i don't plan togo out. also every other week i'm traveling around germany to see festivals or just visit some friends... so there are actually days in my life without computers and without programming ( oh my gosh... i think i'll go see a doctor tomorrow )

I code whenever I have free time and I feel I want to . It varies a lot due to school, homework, games, etc .

same here - although most of my productive code is when it's still quiet [usually past midnight] and I have some ambient music playing.

:yes:

yeah,... when the caffeine runs through your veins and some not to loud downbeat rythms are playing in the background... those are the hours when killercode gets written ( thought this forum could use a few more cheesy posts ) but donBerto is right... past midnight is the best time for coding and for listening to monkeyradio

in school i always slept or read a good book... it was dead boring most of the time anyway... when i didn't sleep at night, because i spent the whole time fixing that one bug or getting that one thing to work, i always thought to myself in the morning... "well, better 5 hours of school than no sleep at all" one can't have that attitude on the job though

I'm never up past midnight, let alone coding then!

Recently however I've started coding during school, because I'm finishing the normal work fast enough.

hahaha great minds don't think alike - they think the same!

even in my senior year of college I STILL HAVE BORING CLASSES! ...and so I jot down code as "good note-taking practices" and do my homework until midnight. and then the "killer-code" [a la anubis] comes a knockin.

and no late-night programming is complete without monkey radio. B)

:yes:

hahahahaha I don't know if I've shown this picture on here, but here it is:

hehe me and my neighbor were stoned beyond belief that night some time in 1999. I'm wearing welding glasses and those earphones that protect you from loud noises.

hahahahahaha fun times - funny how I don't think of my avatar as memorable until I see the full picture.

come to think of it, I have pictures I must show. coming soon.

HAHAHAHAHA I remember baldurk was curious [about who that was in my avatar] but I never got the chance to answer...

:yes:
